Please get rid of the ginger!


She's horrible! She can sing well, but she dances like a super-stiff robot, her 'drumming' is so fake it's distracting, and she's just not a good actress. I think the other three do a good job, but she's terrible.

my one year old son loves this show and both my husband and myself have noticed taht marina's acting skills are subpar compared to everyone else. she drives uis crazy because she overacts so much!

No way! Redheads rule!

She's not that bad. Face it, this isn't Masterpiece Theatre.

Fake drumming? I hate to tell you this, but she is actually a musician. Mater of fact, all 4 of them are musicians. Plus, she's hot to boot. It's a kids show. Stop whining.

reply

She's a pretty good actress and she's a real musician so get over it.

You would think killing people would make them like you but it doesn't. It just makes them dead.

Um, actually I love her, she is my favorite, I don't agree with your opinion at ALL! My toddler of 21 months LOVES this show, and I wouldn't change a thing about it. Even though its annoying that they sing the same songs every single day, that is how babies learn through repeat process. Marina, however you spell it, 9the red head0 and Twist are my favorite two. If anything they should get rid of Kiki, she's annoying.

She used to be on Days of Our Lives Must be where she learned her acting from!

Are you guys serious?? Its a kids show.. being super fake and corny are the requirements! If they weren't it'd be too serious and who would wanna watch?

Well said, sir... well said.

can't agree, sorry. i quite liked her dancing and the fact that she is actually drumming (how is it possible to fake that?), in addition to her singing and that she's got the prettiest smile of the 4, although kiki's smile comes really close. my kid who is a fan of the show also appreciates.

yeah, her punch-line delivery can be corny. let's remember which demographic the show is for. i'm pretty sure it was intentional every time.

reply

I know that shows like this need to be very obvious and over the top, hence the corny deliveries and stuff like that. But the old Marina just wasn't good.

They made a good decision to replace her. I haven't seen much of the new ginger yet, but she seems to be much more talented. Just because it's for kids doesn't mean they should have sub-par performers.

reply

If you want to see "The New Marina" before she was picked, check her out as

"The Movie Maven" - - - ((a youtube show where she reviews and makes fun of movies)) She is very talented - - hopefully they will allow "Marina" to take on some more comedic, less-stiff material soon, because she can DEFINITELY pull it off.

Just craziness.. she was absolutely talented and I'm sure her replacement was of her own choice. Heck, she probably got pregnant or something.
